Salad-Guacamole Salad

I am on a roll with Mexican food today. Here's another from the newspaper that sounds just too good to overlook. Have you ever put Guacamole in a baked potato? I have and it is yummy!

GUACAMOLE SALAD

2 large ripe avocados

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 medium tomato

2 green onions with tops

2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise

1 tablespoon skim milk

Cut avocados in half and remove pits. Peel and place in a blender container. Sprinkle with lemon juice. Add tomato and onion. Process on low speed until mixture is smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. Mix mayonnaise and milk in a small cup until smooth. Carefully pour over guacamole salad and spread evenly to edges to seal. This helps guacamole from turning brown. Cover with plastic and chill. When ready to serve, stir in mayonnaise mixture. Makes about 6 servings.

Hope you will visit my blog often, find a good recipe, send me one to post, and become a follower. Having the time to try new recipes, work on crafts, watch cooking personalities, and learn new decorating ideas is no problem for me now since I'm retired. Going to cooking classes and trying new dishes is fun. Visiting unique tea rooms to dine and to shop at favorite places has now become a hobby. It is also a wonderful leisure activity to sit down and get carried away in a good book. I am posting favorite recipes from friends, newspaper clippings, and some that I have tried. Blogs have taken over my spare time and that is NOT a good thing, but it can be fun! Enjoy your visit and find a recipe to try.
